The Tifton Museum of Arts and Heritage (TMAH) is housed in a 110-years-old architectural treasure that was originally the First Methodist Church. The building was the first brick church built in the community and it brought a refined elegance at the turn of the century to the growing rural town.
Hundreds of Tiftonites, their children and grandchildren, were christened, baptized, married and memorialized in the beautiful Victorian Gothic structure, built by "Captain" Henry Harding Tift, a Connecticut Yankee, who founded the town.The building has had close ties to the town's cultural life from its earliest years.

Me and my daughter enjoyed it very much. Our elementary school went on a field trip, it was my first time there. I was surprised at how free range it actually is. You can wonder around all day, and each building has its pn tour guide. Theres a beautiful lake, farm animals, blacksmiths forge, and a steam train.

The Tifton Museum of Arts and Heritage can be found within a beautiful Romanesque red brick church built more than 110 years ago.
Originally the city’s First Methodist Church, the interior is decorated with large stained-glass windows, vaulted ceilings and beautifully-finished doorways.
Built by the city’s founder, these days visitors to the structure will discover a regularly rotating series of art exhibitions.
They range from traditional paintings to porcelain and wooden sculpture, while the center is also a popular destination for arts workshops.
